KATE HAN

My name is Kate Han, fashion designer currently based in New York, NY.

I graduated from Parsons School of Design, majoring in Fashion Design with a specialization in Menswear. I was initially drawn to menswear for its clean lines, simplicity, and tailored structure—qualities that continue to inspire my work today.

I began my journey in the fashion industry through internships with 3.1 Phillip Lim and One Jeanswear Group, which gave me firsthand insight into both high-end and commercial fashion. These early experiences paved the way for my time at PVH, where I built a strong foundation in apparel development and honed my skills in navigating the fast-paced, ever-evolving New York fashion scene.

After gaining experience at Under Armour as a designer for Men’s and Boy’s Train and Men’s Recover, I have since moved on and am currently designing Men’s Off-Price apparel for HEAD at HighLife. This role has expanded my knowledge across various apparel categories and allowed me to explore new market segments while maintaining a focus on functionality, value, and trend relevance.

My experience now spans from upscale modern fashion to tailored menswear, activewear, and off-price apparel—equipping me with a well-rounded and strategic design perspective.
